What I learned 25/7/2012

The prophet Muhammad (SAW) said:

"I and the person who looks after an orphan and provides for him, will be in Paradise like this"
*putting his index & middle fingers together*

Narrated Sahl bin Sa'd [Bukhari - Volume 8, Book 73, Number 34]

Comments

A man once came to the Messenger of Allah (S) and complained that he feels hardness in his heart. The Messenger of Allah said: 'Would you like that your heart becomes soft and that you acquire what you need? Be merciful with the orphan, pat his head and feed him from what you eat. This will soften your heart, and enable you to get what you need'.
